Engineered Accumulation of Bicarbonate in Plant Chloroplasts: Known Knowns and Known Unknowns

Engineered Accumulation of Bicarbonate in Plant Chloroplasts: Known Knowns and Known Unknowns

Heterologous synthesis of a biophysical CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM) in plant chloroplasts offers significant potential to improve the photosynthetic efficiency of C3 plants and could translate into substantial increases in crop yield. In organisms utilizing a biophysical CCM, this mechanism ef...
